Huckabee Today | Mike Huckabee: January 16, 2025 | Huckabee Today | January 16, 2025
  • And good evening and welcome to huckabee today.
  • 00:00:06.631 --> 00:00:09.801
  • Well, a lot of time has passed
  • 00:00:09.801 --> 00:00:11.269
  • Since donald trump crossed the finish line.
  • 00:00:11.269 --> 00:00:13.705
  • And he did it first on election day.
  • 00:00:13.705 --> 00:00:16.541
  • Yet some democrats are still
  • 00:00:16.541 --> 00:00:18.009
  • Trying to figure out how in the world he did it.
  • 00:00:18.009 --> 00:00:21.146
  • It wasn't just trump who won.
  • 00:00:21.780 --> 00:00:23.915
  • So did republicans in the house and senate
  • 00:00:23.915 --> 00:00:26.885
  • And in statehouses all over the country.
  • 00:00:26.885 --> 00:00:29.988
  • Even now, there are some democrats
  • 00:00:29.988 --> 00:00:32.057
  • And their progressive friends
  • 00:00:32.057 --> 00:00:33.792
  • Using their lawfare tools to try to damage mr.
  • 00:00:33.792 --> 00:00:37.429
  • Trump even as he takes office.
  • 00:00:37.429 --> 00:00:40.265
  • It didn't work last year, and i would have thought
  • 00:00:40.265 --> 00:00:43.568
  • That he might be trying out something new.
  • 00:00:43.568 --> 00:00:45.770
  • New strategies for the new election, the next election.
  • 00:00:45.770 --> 00:00:49.107
  • Well, maybe they don't have any new strategies,
  • 00:00:49.107 --> 00:00:51.676
  • Because far more important than traditional republicans
  • 00:00:51.676 --> 00:00:54.913
  • Put their support behind donald trump and jd vance.
  • 00:00:54.913 --> 00:00:58.483
  • People came from all corners of america
  • 00:00:58.483 --> 00:01:01.786
  • Simply looking for a better economy,
  • 00:01:01.786 --> 00:01:04.189
  • A safer neighborhood, a safer world,
  • 00:01:04.189 --> 00:01:07.225
  • An opportunity for everyone.
  • 00:01:07.225 --> 00:01:10.695
  • Which brings me to a man who created his own opportunity
  • 00:01:10.695 --> 00:01:13.265
  • Years ago.
  • 00:01:13.265 --> 00:01:14.399
  • He's now sitting on
  • 00:01:14.399 --> 00:01:15.433
  • Top of a huge global brand and a very good one.
  • 00:01:15.433 --> 00:01:19.237
  • He's bob, you know, one way.
  • 00:01:19.838 --> 00:01:22.440
  • He's the president and ceo of goya foods,
  • 00:01:22.440 --> 00:01:25.544
  • Chair of the hispanic leadership coalition.
  • 00:01:25.544 --> 00:01:28.380
  • We're very delighted to have him back.
  • 00:01:28.380 --> 00:01:30.248
  • Bob, thank you for joining us.
  • 00:01:30.248 --> 00:01:31.850
  • Forgive the scratching of my voice.
  • 00:01:31.850 --> 00:01:34.452
  • I hope it will be better soon.
  • 00:01:34.452 --> 00:01:36.288
  • So just rest assured i'm
  • 00:01:36.288 --> 00:01:37.822
  • Going to let you do a lot of the talking today.
  • 00:01:37.822 --> 00:01:39.558
  • But welcome back.
  • 00:01:39.558 --> 00:01:41.359
  • That's that's the plan, will, governor.
  • 00:01:42.127 --> 00:01:43.762
  • You know, it's an honor to be with you.
  • 00:01:43.762 --> 00:01:45.597
  • You're,
  • 00:01:45.597 --> 00:01:46.998
  • You're a legend.
  • 00:01:46.998 --> 00:01:48.133
  • Your voice is so important.
  • 00:01:48.133 --> 00:01:49.401
  • You're, of course, your daughter also sarah huckabee sanders.
  • 00:01:49.401 --> 00:01:52.871
  • And and congratulations on your nomination
  • 00:01:52.871 --> 00:01:55.407
  • For ambassador to israel, which, is so important.
  • 00:01:55.407 --> 00:01:58.810
  • All the issues happening now in israel.
  • 00:01:58.810 --> 00:02:01.379
  • So, god bless you in that endeavor.
  • 00:02:01.379 --> 00:02:03.782
  • And we're behind you 100%.
  • 00:02:03.782 --> 00:02:07.619
  • I appreciate that.
  • 00:02:08.053 --> 00:02:09.087
  • Thank you so much, bob.
  • 00:02:09.087 --> 00:02:10.755
  • I want to get to the election
  • 00:02:10.755 --> 00:02:11.890
  • Because the result shocked a lot of people.
  • 00:02:11.890 --> 00:02:14.292
  • The hispanic community came out for donald trump
  • 00:02:14.292 --> 00:02:17.329
  • In the biggest numbers,
  • 00:02:17.329 --> 00:02:18.697
  • Who are a republican candidate for president ever.
  • 00:02:18.697 --> 00:02:21.766
  • A lot of democrats were taking hispanic voters for granted,
  • 00:02:21.766 --> 00:02:25.804
  • And assuming that they would automatically
  • 00:02:25.804 --> 00:02:27.872
  • Get all those votes. what changed this time?
  • 00:02:27.872 --> 00:02:31.843
  • Well, i think the, several things.
  • 00:02:32.611 --> 00:02:35.480
  • One, you know, the economy, the border, the latino,
  • 00:02:35.480 --> 00:02:39.951
  • The hispanic is the number one victim of, human trafficking.
  • 00:02:39.951 --> 00:02:44.956
  • Unfortunately, you know, 25%
  • 00:02:45.557 --> 00:02:48.026
  • Are children, 75% are women.
  • 00:02:48.026 --> 00:02:50.996
  • We had a borders are and,
  • 00:02:50.996 --> 00:02:53.198
  • Secretaries of hhs and dhs that cared little.
  • 00:02:53.198 --> 00:02:56.868
  • In fact, there's been,
  • 00:02:56.868 --> 00:02:59.537
  • Testimony to the fact that the u.s.
  • 00:02:59.537 --> 00:03:01.573
  • Is the middleman in this.
  • 00:03:01.573 --> 00:03:03.174
  • The largest industry, in the world.
  • 00:03:03.174 --> 00:03:06.878
  • However, the economy was one of the big things.
  • 00:03:06.878 --> 00:03:09.814
  • And, you know, as latinos were a country of immigrants.
  • 00:03:09.814 --> 00:03:13.451
  • Hispanic were the second largest latino country in the world.
  • 00:03:14.619 --> 00:03:18.056
  • And, so the issues of the economy are very important to,
  • 00:03:18.056 --> 00:03:22.727
  • Hispanic and hispanic values with the values of god,
  • 00:03:22.727 --> 00:03:25.563
  • Family, and work that we need to wake up with a purpose.
  • 00:03:25.563 --> 00:03:29.567
  • And so, you know, not just, those values,
  • 00:03:29.567 --> 00:03:33.271
  • But in the previous elections also, again, the border,
  • 00:03:33.271 --> 00:03:37.242
  • You know, we,
  • 00:03:37.242 --> 00:03:38.710
  • We've worked very hard.
  • 00:03:39.210 --> 00:03:41.112
  • The average social security check is $1,200,
  • 00:03:41.112 --> 00:03:44.849
  • But there are illegals coming in, getting over
  • 00:03:44.849 --> 00:03:48.019
  • $3,800 in, benefits right away, luxury hotels.
  • 00:03:48.019 --> 00:03:53.525
  • And, you know, while americans and veterans,
  • 00:03:53.525 --> 00:03:55.560
  • Sleep on the streets.
  • 00:03:55.560 --> 00:03:56.861
  • So, you know, the latino, the hispanic
  • 00:03:56.861 --> 00:03:59.564
  • That has come into this country and through the right,
  • 00:03:59.564 --> 00:04:02.600
  • In the right way and and, waiting on line,
  • 00:04:02.600 --> 00:04:06.805
  • What's happening where we're being sent,
  • 00:04:07.639 --> 00:04:10.442
  • You know, the worst criminals, like president
  • 00:04:10.442 --> 00:04:13.144
  • Trump says, from around the world,
  • 00:04:13.144 --> 00:04:16.247
  • In 2016,
  • 00:04:16.247 --> 00:04:18.817
  • We were about 27% of the vote.
  • 00:04:18.817 --> 00:04:22.420
  • That grew to 30 some in 2020.
  • 00:04:22.420 --> 00:04:25.457
  • But in this last election, it was 46% of the hispanic
  • 00:04:25.457 --> 00:04:29.527
  • Vote overall, 56% were men.
  • 00:04:29.527 --> 00:04:32.764
  • And we're just tired and,
  • 00:04:32.764 --> 00:04:35.800
  • Fed up with an economy that is only penalizes
  • 00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:41.106
  • The working class together with covid.
  • 00:04:41.106 --> 00:04:44.209
  • You know, a lot of the working class is put out of business.
  • 00:04:44.209 --> 00:04:47.912
  • The hard working people that can't work virtually.
  • 00:04:47.912 --> 00:04:51.216
  • They have to, you know, fight it out every day.
  • 00:04:51.216 --> 00:04:54.386
  • We're put out of work.
  • 00:04:54.386 --> 00:04:55.653
  • We're given our spirit, taken away our purpose.
  • 00:04:55.653 --> 00:04:58.857
  • So the the hispanic community said enough is enough.
  • 00:04:58.857 --> 00:05:03.428
  • We need an economy that, which we were seeking
  • 00:05:03.428 --> 00:05:07.298
  • Coming to this country looking for a prosperity,
  • 00:05:07.298 --> 00:05:10.402
  • Looking for freedom and looking just for opportunity
  • 00:05:10.402 --> 00:05:14.305
  • And and to practice our faith. so,
  • 00:05:14.305 --> 00:05:17.909
  • You know, those were
  • 00:05:18.376 --> 00:05:19.477
  • The critical factors that really, change the tide.
  • 00:05:19.477 --> 00:05:22.747
  • And president trump addressed all that, you know, to
  • 00:05:22.747 --> 00:05:25.817
  • The common person, to the hardworking person.
  • 00:05:25.817 --> 00:05:29.187
  • And he did it in a way which is historic.
  • 00:05:29.187 --> 00:05:32.490
  • And, again, not just with the latino population, but with the
  • 00:05:32.490 --> 00:05:36.361
  • The african-american population or all the minorities,
  • 00:05:36.361 --> 00:05:40.298
  • Reached out, to all of us.
  • 00:05:40.865 --> 00:05:43.868
  • And, and thank god, because we were losing our country.
  • 00:05:43.868 --> 00:05:48.006
  • If if he didn't prevail, we would have lost it.
  • 00:05:48.006 --> 00:05:51.709
  • And, you know, god's god's hand was on president trump.
  • 00:05:51.709 --> 00:05:56.781
  • From assassination attempts to, to everything.
  • 00:05:57.749 --> 00:06:01.953
  • He's already making tremendous changes around the globe.
  • 00:06:01.953 --> 00:06:05.890
  • I think he's a president not just of this country.
  • 00:06:05.890 --> 00:06:09.527
  • He's a president for this world.
  • 00:06:09.527 --> 00:06:13.031
  • You know, bob, one of the things i always love
  • 00:06:13.932 --> 00:06:15.567
  • In talking with you is your unapologetic approach
  • 00:06:15.567 --> 00:06:19.504
  • To looking at life through the lens of faith.
  • 00:06:19.504 --> 00:06:23.241
  • And you said something early in the conversation today
  • 00:06:23.241 --> 00:06:26.377
  • That the big issues for hispanic voters,
  • 00:06:26.377 --> 00:06:29.581
  • God, family and work.
  • 00:06:29.581 --> 00:06:33.284
  • And i thought, you know,
  • 00:06:33.284 --> 00:06:34.486
  • That's really what most of us care about.
  • 00:06:34.486 --> 00:06:37.188
  • And it doesn't matter whether we're
  • 00:06:37.188 --> 00:06:38.990
  • Caucasian or hispanic or african-american or
  • 00:06:38.990 --> 00:06:43.061
  • Whether we're asian.
  • 00:06:43.528 --> 00:06:45.463
  • Those things
  • 00:06:45.797 --> 00:06:46.764
  • Seem to matter to most americans, all of us.
  • 00:06:46.764 --> 00:06:50.268
  • And yet, it was also a year in which the democrats
  • 00:06:50.268 --> 00:06:54.372
  • Openly ridicule or people of faith
  • 00:06:54.372 --> 00:06:57.475
  • And ridicule the principles of faith,
  • 00:06:57.475 --> 00:06:59.744
  • Particularly the idea that there's a man, there's a woman.
  • 00:06:59.744 --> 00:07:03.014
  • That's how god made gender marriage mean something.
  • 00:07:03.014 --> 00:07:06.484
  • Family means something.
  • 00:07:06.484 --> 00:07:08.353
  • And we had people saying
  • 00:07:08.353 --> 00:07:09.454
  • That six year olds could determine that
  • 00:07:09.454 --> 00:07:13.091
  • The gender god had assigned them was a big mistake.
  • 00:07:13.091 --> 00:07:16.494
  • And i can't help but think that when when i heard you say god,
  • 00:07:16.494 --> 00:07:19.931
  • Faith at work, you were getting at the heart of the fabric.
  • 00:07:19.931 --> 00:07:22.901
  • Because quite frankly, in the hispanic community,
  • 00:07:22.901 --> 00:07:25.637
  • Faith is a bigger part of the fabric of life than it is for
  • 00:07:25.637 --> 00:07:30.275
  • Many of the other communities, including caucasian.
  • 00:07:30.275 --> 00:07:33.311
  • So that must have been a big part of what moved some
  • 00:07:33.311 --> 00:07:36.648
  • Of the voters.
  • 00:07:36.648 --> 00:07:38.683
  • It is such
  • 00:07:38.983 --> 00:07:39.918
  • A big factor, governor, and the fact that,
  • 00:07:39.918 --> 00:07:42.887
  • You know, a small portion is the few controlling the many.
  • 00:07:42.887 --> 00:07:46.624
  • You know, we are a country of faith under god.
  • 00:07:46.624 --> 00:07:49.827
  • And yet, the few tell us that we are not that we should have.
  • 00:07:49.827 --> 00:07:54.866
  • You know, you go to the olympics
  • 00:07:54.866 --> 00:07:56.868
  • And you have a blasphemy of the last supper.
  • 00:07:56.868 --> 00:07:59.571
  • You have all these things being controlled by,
  • 00:07:59.571 --> 00:08:03.241
  • You know, by the shoe.
  • 00:08:03.708 --> 00:08:05.343
  • And even, as i said, president trump, i believe, is a president
  • 00:08:05.343 --> 00:08:10.582
  • Not just for the united states, for the world.
  • 00:08:10.582 --> 00:08:12.717
  • I have we have operations in spain.
  • 00:08:12.717 --> 00:08:15.086
  • I am actually a dual citizen of spain.
  • 00:08:15.086 --> 00:08:17.555
  • And in spain, at 12 years old, you can determine
  • 00:08:17.555 --> 00:08:21.259
  • Your own, gender, without your parents input.
  • 00:08:21.259 --> 00:08:25.296
  • So, you know, what's happening in this world
  • 00:08:25.296 --> 00:08:28.900
  • Is not just the united states. it's happening around the world.
  • 00:08:28.900 --> 00:08:31.436
  • And i think we're going to see a return
  • 00:08:31.436 --> 00:08:34.205
  • To that faith where the majority have to speak up.
  • 00:08:34.205 --> 00:08:36.975
  • We can't let the few, the evil, basically
  • 00:08:36.975 --> 00:08:40.678
  • Control, you know, the, the,
  • 00:08:40.678 --> 00:08:43.448
  • The world.
  • 00:08:43.748 --> 00:08:45.016
  • And, you know, there's a cuban, poet and patriot, jose marti.
  • 00:08:45.016 --> 00:08:50.188
  • He said, there's a there are those who are born
  • 00:08:50.188 --> 00:08:52.857
  • To love and to build and others to hate and destroy.
  • 00:08:52.857 --> 00:08:56.361
  • And this evil that's brought about is to hate and destroy.
  • 00:08:56.361 --> 00:09:01.265
  • We're destroying,
  • 00:09:01.265 --> 00:09:03.267
  • Our children.
  • 00:09:03.267 --> 00:09:04.068
  • We're not valuing life.
  • 00:09:04.068 --> 00:09:05.670
  • You look at,
  • 00:09:05.670 --> 00:09:07.372
  • Last year in 2023, actually, two years ago
  • 00:09:07.372 --> 00:09:10.708
  • Now, april 23rd, they testified that there were the u.s.
  • 00:09:10.708 --> 00:09:14.612
  • Was the middleman in this industry of child trafficking.
  • 00:09:14.612 --> 00:09:17.715
  • 85,000 children were missing.
  • 00:09:18.349 --> 00:09:21.052
  • Now, in 24, the,
  • 00:09:21.052 --> 00:09:24.355
  • The the inspector general of dhs,
  • 00:09:24.355 --> 00:09:27.225
  • The department of homeland security
  • 00:09:27.225 --> 00:09:29.060
  • Said there were 340,000, children missing.
  • 00:09:29.060 --> 00:09:33.831
  • They're not missing their soul.
  • 00:09:33.831 --> 00:09:35.800
  • You know, when you send 40 kids to an address
  • 00:09:35.800 --> 00:09:38.770
  • That's not a home.
  • 00:09:38.770 --> 00:09:40.338
  • It's.
  • 00:09:40.338 --> 00:09:41.406
  • It's a business.
  • 00:09:41.406 --> 00:09:42.640
  • And, so actually optimistic about,
  • 00:09:42.640 --> 00:09:47.145
  • Our good friend tom homan, who's coming in as the borders are.
  • 00:09:47.145 --> 00:09:51.115
  • And and president trump has this as his,
  • 00:09:51.115 --> 00:09:53.918
  • One of his many, many priorities.
  • 00:09:54.619 --> 00:09:57.088
  • But valuing life going after
  • 00:09:57.088 --> 00:10:00.258
  • Finding these children and saving them.
  • 00:10:00.258 --> 00:10:03.261
  • And it's not just the children coming over the border
  • 00:10:03.261 --> 00:10:05.930
  • Is we're not saving life in our own backyards.
  • 00:10:05.930 --> 00:10:08.533
  • We're the drugs that are coming in and, you know,
  • 00:10:08.533 --> 00:10:12.370
  • But we can go.
  • 00:10:12.370 --> 00:10:14.072
  • We need to unite as a country
  • 00:10:14.072 --> 00:10:16.808
  • And care for our children, because our children
  • 00:10:16.808 --> 00:10:19.577
  • Are our present and they're our future.
  • 00:10:19.577 --> 00:10:24.048
  • Bob. well said.
  • 00:10:24.415 --> 00:10:25.516
  • And it's just tragic to think about 340,000 children
  • 00:10:25.516 --> 00:10:30.154
  • And we don't know where they are.
  • 00:10:30.154 --> 00:10:31.723
  • And the biden administration has lost them.
  • 00:10:31.723 --> 00:10:33.624
  • And that is a tragedy.
  • 00:10:33.624 --> 00:10:35.760
  • Well, stay with us.
  • 00:10:35.760 --> 00:10:36.694
  • We've got a brief break with our sponsors.
  • 00:10:36.694 --> 00:10:39.497
  • They're the ones who make this show possible.
  • 00:10:39.497 --> 00:10:41.399
  • So pay attention carefully.
  • 00:10:41.399 --> 00:10:43.101
  • And then we'll have more
  • 00:10:43.101 --> 00:10:44.702
  • With the ceo and president of goya foods.
  • 00:10:44.702 --> 00:10:47.205
  • Bob, you know, we'll be right back.
  • 00:10:47.205 --> 00:10:58.006
  • We are back with the ceo and president of goya foods.
  • 00:10:58.753 --> 00:11:01.255
  • Bob, you know,
  • 00:11:01.255 --> 00:11:03.224
  • Bob, when we were talking before you,
  • 00:11:03.224 --> 00:11:06.026
  • You made the comment that people were excited about tom homan
  • 00:11:06.026 --> 00:11:10.331
  • Coming in to be, the border czar,
  • 00:11:10.331 --> 00:11:12.967
  • The person who will actually patrol and really,
  • 00:11:12.967 --> 00:11:16.604
  • Make sure that the borders are safe.
  • 00:11:16.604 --> 00:11:18.939
  • I think some people
  • 00:11:18.939 --> 00:11:20.207
  • Have the mistaken notion, and it's terribly mistaken
  • 00:11:20.207 --> 00:11:23.878
  • That hispanic people in america want open borders.
  • 00:11:23.878 --> 00:11:27.848
  • My friends in the hispanic community
  • 00:11:27.848 --> 00:11:29.884
  • Have said the opposite, that they've worked really,
  • 00:11:29.884 --> 00:11:32.353
  • Really hard to build businesses, to build families,
  • 00:11:32.353 --> 00:11:35.790
  • To create prosperity
  • 00:11:35.790 --> 00:11:37.258
  • For their their own families and their extended families.
  • 00:11:37.258 --> 00:11:41.829
  • And when someone comes in that didn't follow the rules,
  • 00:11:41.829 --> 00:11:45.132
  • That didn't stand in line and take the time that they had
  • 00:11:45.132 --> 00:11:48.736
  • To take.
  • 00:11:48.736 --> 00:11:49.804
  • It's an insult to their having followed the rules.
  • 00:11:49.804 --> 00:11:53.440
  • Follow the law.
  • 00:11:53.440 --> 00:11:55.176
  • Why don't democrats understand that?
  • 00:11:55.176 --> 00:11:57.444
  • I'm sure you've had some of them,
  • 00:11:57.444 --> 00:11:59.446
  • Try to explain to you that you should love open borders,
  • 00:11:59.446 --> 00:12:02.917
  • But you don't, and most hispanics don't.
  • 00:12:02.917 --> 00:12:05.753
  • Why don't democrats get that?
  • 00:12:05.753 --> 00:12:08.722
  • Well, governor, you know most.
  • 00:12:09.323 --> 00:12:11.625
  • We are a country of immigrants.
  • 00:12:11.625 --> 00:12:13.160
  • And when people come in, they're looking to work hard and given
  • 00:12:13.160 --> 00:12:17.264
  • The opportunity and really, this open border is a new concept.
  • 00:12:17.264 --> 00:12:22.269
  • And i think it's evil because a lot of,
  • 00:12:22.269 --> 00:12:25.940
  • What's been coming across the border, on the one hand,
  • 00:12:25.940 --> 00:12:29.443
  • It's a traffic of our children, and it's a business.
  • 00:12:29.443 --> 00:12:32.179
  • And i don't believe these children, that are,
  • 00:12:32.179 --> 00:12:35.115
  • Trafficked are necessarily lost because we
  • 00:12:35.115 --> 00:12:38.219
  • We send them to sponsors.
  • 00:12:38.219 --> 00:12:40.487
  • And so,
  • 00:12:40.487 --> 00:12:42.857
  • And i believe, like tara lee wrote us, said that,
  • 00:12:42.857 --> 00:12:45.559
  • That we are the middlemen.
  • 00:12:45.559 --> 00:12:46.727
  • And so
  • 00:12:46.727 --> 00:12:47.862
  • There's people profiting off of this,
  • 00:12:47.862 --> 00:12:49.463
  • The hundreds of billions of dollars that the, cartels make,
  • 00:12:49.463 --> 00:12:53.601
  • They're not making it without, graft to maybe the u.s.
  • 00:12:53.601 --> 00:12:57.671
  • Government and and the, in mexico and other countries.
  • 00:12:57.671 --> 00:13:02.076
  • But the there's a difference to people
  • 00:13:02.076 --> 00:13:04.778
  • Who have come into this country
  • 00:13:04.778 --> 00:13:06.647
  • That want to work with those values.
  • 00:13:06.647 --> 00:13:08.549
  • We're talking about god, family, work and purpose.
  • 00:13:08.549 --> 00:13:11.785
  • So they come for opportunity.
  • 00:13:11.785 --> 00:13:13.454
  • But unfortunately,
  • 00:13:13.454 --> 00:13:15.222
  • The people have come over the last four years and have
  • 00:13:15.222 --> 00:13:18.726
  • There are probably many, many good people
  • 00:13:18.726 --> 00:13:21.729
  • That want to get ahead.
  • 00:13:21.729 --> 00:13:23.464
  • But also we've received people from over 170, 180 countries.
  • 00:13:23.464 --> 00:13:28.469
  • We've received the worst of the worst.
  • 00:13:28.469 --> 00:13:31.038
  • I have a daughter in law from venezuela.
  • 00:13:31.038 --> 00:13:33.707
  • The trend they are agua.
  • 00:13:33.707 --> 00:13:35.376
  • It's. they've sent the the,
  • 00:13:35.376 --> 00:13:38.012
  • Collectives.
  • 00:13:38.345 --> 00:13:39.546
  • They empty the jails.
  • 00:13:39.546 --> 00:13:40.781
  • They sent, these criminals to our country,
  • 00:13:40.781 --> 00:13:45.286
  • And they're wreaking havoc around the country.
  • 00:13:45.286 --> 00:13:48.756
  • The ms13, although locally in el salvador,
  • 00:13:48.756 --> 00:13:52.927
  • Has, jailed over 15,000 of them, but they've sent them.
  • 00:13:52.927 --> 00:13:58.032
  • They're already here.
  • 00:13:58.032 --> 00:13:59.667
  • And so those people are coming into this country to create,
  • 00:13:59.667 --> 00:14:04.104
  • Havoc. but it's it's
  • 00:14:04.571 --> 00:14:06.941
  • I believe it's coordinated, maybe sent by people.
  • 00:14:06.941 --> 00:14:10.077
  • I don't want to mention names, but there's, you know, people
  • 00:14:10.077 --> 00:14:13.314
  • Who who thrive off of destroying
  • 00:14:13.314 --> 00:14:17.384
  • This country, you know, opening up our jail cells.
  • 00:14:17.384 --> 00:14:21.121
  • The, i'm so glad that pam bundy,
  • 00:14:21.121 --> 00:14:24.591
  • Our good friend, is going to be taking over.
  • 00:14:24.591 --> 00:14:27.461
  • And, as you know, attorney general,
  • 00:14:27.461 --> 00:14:30.631
  • Because we need to the people who come into this country
  • 00:14:30.631 --> 00:14:34.501
  • Like they would come into our home to do us harm.
  • 00:14:34.501 --> 00:14:37.638
  • They got to be put away.
  • 00:14:37.638 --> 00:14:40.140
  • They can't do not welcome.
  • 00:14:40.140 --> 00:14:41.742
  • If you want to come into this country
  • 00:14:41.742 --> 00:14:44.111
  • To help, to build love and build not hate and destroy,
  • 00:14:44.111 --> 00:14:48.082
  • We're letting in the hatred and destroy us.
  • 00:14:48.082 --> 00:14:50.818
  • And we even have people in congress that want that.
  • 00:14:50.818 --> 00:14:54.188
  • And that opened the doors to that.
  • 00:14:54.188 --> 00:14:55.789
  • And again,
  • 00:14:55.789 --> 00:14:57.925
  • Hhs have you bacerra
  • 00:14:58.392 --> 00:15:01.028
  • Under o r r the office of refugee resettlement.
  • 00:15:01.028 --> 00:15:04.665
  • They had 85,000 children missing.
  • 00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:08.302
  • He he told his group
  • 00:15:08.302 --> 00:15:10.871
  • Henry ford would be embarrassed by the lack of efficiency.
  • 00:15:10.871 --> 00:15:13.741
  • We got to be more efficient. and guess what?
  • 00:15:13.741 --> 00:15:16.010
  • They went from 85,000 to 340,000.
  • 00:15:16.010 --> 00:15:19.646
  • So that in my eyes, it looks like they're complicit.
  • 00:15:19.646 --> 00:15:23.984
  • Or alejandro mayorkas under dhs opening these borders.
  • 00:15:23.984 --> 00:15:28.522
  • We're we're trying to stop them in texas here.
  • 00:15:28.522 --> 00:15:31.892
  • And another border. this is north.
  • 00:15:31.892 --> 00:15:34.661
  • There's the southern border.
  • 00:15:34.661 --> 00:15:36.563
  • There's a northern border, and there's a parole system.
  • 00:15:36.563 --> 00:15:38.732
  • Where from venezuela, cuba, haiti and nicaragua.
  • 00:15:38.732 --> 00:15:43.871
  • We're flying people in.
  • 00:15:43.871 --> 00:15:45.639
  • So the u.s. is,
  • 00:15:45.639 --> 00:15:48.442
  • Not just opening a border.
  • 00:15:48.442 --> 00:15:50.744
  • We're going searching,
  • 00:15:50.744 --> 00:15:52.046
  • And we're bringing we're actively bringing people in.
  • 00:15:52.046 --> 00:15:55.416
  • So this is what the hispanic community
  • 00:15:55.416 --> 00:15:57.651
  • That wants prosperity, that want a safe
  • 00:15:57.651 --> 00:16:00.354
  • Neighborhood and all communities want that.
  • 00:16:00.354 --> 00:16:03.290
  • And we're under attack.
  • 00:16:03.290 --> 00:16:04.691
  • Like president trump said, it's an invasion.
  • 00:16:04.691 --> 00:16:07.061
  • And nobody's for, unsafe neighborhoods,
  • 00:16:07.061 --> 00:16:10.431
  • An economy that benefits people who don't want to work
  • 00:16:10.431 --> 00:16:14.068
  • And they just want to take our prosperity away.
  • 00:16:14.068 --> 00:16:19.706
  • Bob, one of the things i love about you is,
  • 00:16:20.607 --> 00:16:23.043
  • You speak a clear message, and i want to congratulate you
  • 00:16:23.043 --> 00:16:26.013
  • For building an incredible global company.
  • 00:16:26.013 --> 00:16:29.149
  • I mean, it's, an extraordinary success story.
  • 00:16:29.149 --> 00:16:32.319
  • It is the ultimate
  • 00:16:32.319 --> 00:16:33.520
  • American story of what you've done with goya foods.
  • 00:16:33.520 --> 00:16:36.924
  • I know our family.
  • 00:16:37.357 --> 00:16:39.460
  • I love the salsa.
  • 00:16:39.460 --> 00:16:40.828
  • I love the black beans.
  • 00:16:40.828 --> 00:16:42.463
  • There's a lot of stuff you make.
  • 00:16:42.463 --> 00:16:43.864
  • And when i go to the store
  • 00:16:43.864 --> 00:16:45.299
  • And the shelves are empty with goya foods because
  • 00:16:45.299 --> 00:16:48.102
  • Too many people want them, it makes me upset
  • 00:16:48.102 --> 00:16:51.872
  • Because i'm thinking they need to stock
  • 00:16:51.872 --> 00:16:54.842
  • More, not less, of the glory brand.
  • 00:16:54.842 --> 00:16:58.512
  • So thank you for joining us today. it's always a delight.
  • 00:16:58.512 --> 00:17:01.048

  • A great company,
  • 00:17:07.020 --> 00:17:07.788
  • Putting a lot of people to work,
  • 00:17:07.788 --> 00:17:09.690
  • And giving a lot of american families good nutrition.
  • 00:17:09.690 --> 00:17:12.459
  • It's a pleasure to have you here.
  • 00:17:12.459 --> 00:17:14.495
  • And when we come back,
  • 00:17:14.495 --> 00:17:15.529
  • We're going to be reading some of your emails.
  • 00:17:15.529 --> 00:17:17.965
  • So i hope that you will stay with us.
  • 00:17:17.965 --> 00:17:20.300
  • We will let you hear what people are saying to us, by the way.
  • 00:17:20.300 --> 00:17:24.371
  • They're all g rated, so it's perfectly safe
  • 00:17:24.371 --> 00:17:26.707

  • And welcome back.
  • 00:17:39.008 --> 00:17:39.725
  • I hope you enjoyed having bobby with us.
  • 00:17:39.725 --> 00:17:42.461
  • He's just such a delightful guy and what a company he's built.
  • 00:17:42.461 --> 00:17:46.632
  • We love hearing from you.
  • 00:17:46.632 --> 00:17:48.066
  • And your emails mean the world.
  • 00:17:48.066 --> 00:17:50.068
  • This comes to us from jenny.
  • 00:17:50.068 --> 00:17:51.637
  • Lives out in west texas, abilene,
  • 00:17:51.637 --> 00:17:54.339
  • And says, i want to say amen to
  • 00:17:54.339 --> 00:17:56.942
  • You guys who want to make term limits the law.
  • 00:17:56.942 --> 00:18:00.212
  • But so many people, myself included, are a little confused
  • 00:18:00.212 --> 00:18:03.682
  • About the continental congress approach to enforce the law.
  • 00:18:03.682 --> 00:18:07.553
  • Well, it's actually a constitutional convention.
  • 00:18:07.553 --> 00:18:10.455
  • That's how it would work.
  • 00:18:10.455 --> 00:18:11.990
  • It's a part of our constitution that very few people really
  • 00:18:11.990 --> 00:18:15.227
  • Have remembered.
  • 00:18:15.227 --> 00:18:16.862
  • They didn't study it in civics, but it's their here's
  • 00:18:16.862 --> 00:18:19.798
  • What it means
  • 00:18:19.798 --> 00:18:21.033
  • When we cannot get the congress to act on behalf of the people.
  • 00:18:21.033 --> 00:18:26.004
  • Kind of like it is now.
  • 00:18:26.004 --> 00:18:27.806
  • There is a mechanism
  • 00:18:27.806 --> 00:18:28.974
  • In the constitution called a constitutional convention.
  • 00:18:28.974 --> 00:18:32.711
  • And when 37 states
  • 00:18:33.145 --> 00:18:35.847
  • Are willing to call for a constitutional convention,
  • 00:18:35.847 --> 00:18:39.585
  • You have a convention of the states
  • 00:18:39.585 --> 00:18:41.853
  • That results in delegates from the each of those states
  • 00:18:41.853 --> 00:18:45.324
  • Being able to con put forth an amendment to the constitution
  • 00:18:45.324 --> 00:18:49.595
  • And whether congress likes it or not, it happens. now,
  • 00:18:49.595 --> 00:18:53.765
  • What that would mean is if congress won't
  • 00:18:54.633 --> 00:18:56.835
  • Put term limits on themselves, and they probably never will.
  • 00:18:56.835 --> 00:19:00.038
  • It's one way of doing it.
  • 00:19:00.038 --> 00:19:01.773
  • But here's what i'm also convinced of.
  • 00:19:01.773 --> 00:19:04.209
  • If we ever got to the point of a constitutional convention,
  • 00:19:04.209 --> 00:19:07.879
  • And if we ever did.
  • 00:19:08.347 --> 00:19:09.581
  • In fact, the term limits and a balanced budget amendment,
  • 00:19:09.581 --> 00:19:12.184
  • Something i believe we should do, congress would suddenly say,
  • 00:19:12.184 --> 00:19:15.721
  • Oh my gosh, if we don't do this, they're going to do it for us.
  • 00:19:15.721 --> 00:19:19.458
  • And it may be worse,
  • 00:19:19.458 --> 00:19:21.093
  • And congress would end up doing it
  • 00:19:21.093 --> 00:19:22.661
  • Not because they wanted to,
  • 00:19:22.661 --> 00:19:24.429
  • But because they felt like they had to.
  • 00:19:24.429 --> 00:19:26.932
  • That's how it would work.
  • 00:19:26.932 --> 00:19:28.634
  • This comes to us from larry, grand rapids, michigan.
  • 00:19:28.634 --> 00:19:31.770
  • He says your segment with seth gruber and planned parenthood's
  • 00:19:31.770 --> 00:19:35.040
  • History brought to mind the latest news about the push
  • 00:19:35.040 --> 00:19:39.244
  • For a 50 state green light to mail a home chemical drug
  • 00:19:39.244 --> 00:19:44.449
  • That would kill babies without doctor supervision.
  • 00:19:44.449 --> 00:19:47.886
  • Well, i pray that that does not happen.
  • 00:19:47.886 --> 00:19:51.056
  • I'm confident that under the trump
  • 00:19:51.056 --> 00:19:52.924
  • Administration, it will not happen.
  • 00:19:52.924 --> 00:19:55.894
  • Donald trump has been a strong pro-life president,
  • 00:19:55.894 --> 00:19:59.231
  • And that would be one way he could continue
  • 00:19:59.231 --> 00:20:00.966
  • To keep it going.
  • 00:20:00.966 --> 00:20:02.401
  • Paul, from maui, out there in the beautiful state of hawaii,
  • 00:20:02.401 --> 00:20:06.004
  • Has a simple email to me.
  • 00:20:06.571 --> 00:20:08.006
  • He's just says, don't forget to pack pinky,
  • 00:20:08.006 --> 00:20:11.476
  • My infamous pink jacket.
  • 00:20:12.010 --> 00:20:15.047
  • Oh, i assure you, paul, it's going with me to israel.
  • 00:20:15.047 --> 00:20:19.851
  • And i hope you're going to be
  • 00:20:19.851 --> 00:20:21.053
  • Going with me right through this next break,
  • 00:20:21.053 --> 00:20:23.955
  • Because i'll be back with a final word right after this.
  • 00:20:23.955 --> 00:20:36.011
  • But we hope you enjoyed the show tonight.
  • 00:20:36.505 --> 00:20:38.941
  • I want to remind you
  • 00:20:38.941 --> 00:20:39.975
  • That we're soon bringing this one to a landing.
  • 00:20:39.975 --> 00:20:43.079
  • Unfortunately, in order to leave for israel
  • 00:20:43.079 --> 00:20:45.781
  • And become the ambassador, i got to let this go.
  • 00:20:45.781 --> 00:20:49.585
  • And it's going to be tough.
  • 00:20:49.585 --> 00:20:50.986
  • But the good news is,
  • 00:20:50.986 --> 00:20:52.822
  • The person who follows me, he's still going to be here.
  • 00:20:52.822 --> 00:20:56.092
  • And an amazing guy.
  • 00:20:56.559 --> 00:20:57.827
  • He is.
  • 00:20:57.827 --> 00:20:58.728
  • I'm talking, of course, about alan
  • 00:20:58.728 --> 00:21:00.229
  • Jackson, who's coming up next right here on tbn.
  • 00:21:00.229 --> 00:21:04.133
  • Until we're together next time.
  • 00:21:04.133 --> 00:21:05.468
  • This is mike huckabee. thank you for joining us.
  • 00:21:05.468 --> 00:21:07.870
  • We'll see you real soon.
  • 00:21:07.870 --> 00:21:09.605
  • Good night.
  • 00:21:09.605 --> 00:21:10.639
  • And i'll watch.
  • 00:21:10.639 --> 00:21:10.639
